Attention Students: Please be aware that ProctorU has changed the browser extension used for proctored exams. Effective immediately, you will no longer use the ProctorU browser extension to take your exams. Instead, you must download ProctorU's Guardian Browser to take any ProctorU exam.
To ensure you are ready for your exam, please check the minimum system requirements and test your equipment beforehand.
With the Guardian Browser, Google Chromebooks will no longer be supported for ProctorU Record+ exams.
